Actors: Bruce Dern, others; Director: Douglas Trumbull; Writers: Deric Washburn, Mike Cimino, Steve BochoScene: Real foodSilent Running movie (1972)15:52: The difference is that I grew it, that's what the difference is. That I picked it and I fixed it, and it has a taste, and it has some color, and it has a smell. And that it calls back a time when there were flowers all over the earth, and there were valleys, and there were plains of tall green grass that you could lie down in and go to sleep in. And there were blue skies, and there was fresh air, and there were things growing all over the place... Look at that stuff...look at this crap, dried, synthetic crap! And you've become so dependent on it that I'll bet you can't even live without it... On earth, everywhere you go the temperature is 75 degrees. Everything is the same. All the people are exactly the same. Now, what kind of life is that? It's not too late to change... That's right, everytime we have the argument, you say the same thing to me, you give me the same three answers all the time, the same thing: well, everybody has a job, that's always the last one. But you know what else there is no more of, my friend? There is no more beauty, and there's no more imagination... You know why? Only one reason why: the same attitude that you three guys are giving me right here in this room today - that is, nobody cares.

Actors: Martin Donovan, Adrienne Shelly; Director/writer: Hal HartleyScene: Television deadens the inner core of my being (excerpt)Trust movie (1990)20:28
Actor: Ned Beatty; writer: Paddy Chayefsky; director: Sidney LumetScene: There are no nations, there are no people...Network movie (1976)22:39: You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples. There are no nations, there are no peoples, there are no Russians, there are no Arabs, there are no third worlds, there is no west. There is only one holistic system of systems, one vast and immane, interwoven, interacting, multivariate, multi-national dominion of dollars. Petro-dollars, electro-dollars, multi-dollars, Reichmarks, rins, rubles, pounds, and shekels. It is the international system of currency which determines the totality of life on this planet.
Actors: Jack Nicholson, Dennis Hopper; writers: Peter Fonda, Dennis HopperScene: It's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplaceEasy Rider movie (1969)24:14: You know, this used to be a hell of a good country. Can't understand what's goin' on with it. Man, everybody got chicken, that's what happened. Oh, they're not scared of you, they're scared of what you represent to them. What you represent to them is freedom. What the hell is wrong with freedom, that's what it's all about! Oh yeah, that's right, that's what it's all about, all right. But talking about it and being it, that's two different things. I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace. Of course, don't ever tell anybody that they're not free, 'cause then they gonna get real busy killing and maiming to prove to you that they are. Oh yeah, they gonna talk to you and talk to you and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em. It makes 'em dangerous.
Actor: Ned Beatty; writer: Paddy Chayefsky; director: Sidney LumetScene: There are no nations, there are no people...Network movie (1976)28:12: That is the natural order of things today. That is the atomic, and sub-atomic, and galactic structure of things today. You get up on your little twenty-one inch screen and howl about America and democracy. There is no America, there is no democracy. There is only IBM, and ITT, and AT&T, and Dupont, Dow, Union Carbide, and Exxon. Those are the nations of the world today.
Michael Andrews & Gary Jules (Tears for Fears cover)Mad WorldDonnie Darko Complete Soundtrack (2001)31:08: Children waiting for the day they feel good, happy birthday, happy birthday. Made to feel the way that every child should. Sit and listen, sit and listen. Went to school and I was very nervous. No one knew me, no one knew me. Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson. Look right through me, look right through me.
